message from the president
Deciphering the Codes: ICYMI – WIIFM?
In this months President's Message from Dr. Nelson Tuazon you can read updates about District 8 and the strategic steps District 8 is taking to move onward and forward.
Dr. Tuazon dives into why being in a professional organization is important as he deciphers "What's In It For Me" and "In Case You Missed It."
An African proverb reminds us: “I am because we are.” As president of TNA District 8, I would like to remind ourselves that we have the professional duty and obligation to belong to a professional organization (DeLeskey, 2003; Echevarria, 2018; Greggs-McQuilkin, 2005; Schroeder, 2013; Sullivan & Stevenson, 2009). As members of TNA, we generate energy, promote the exchange of ideas, and contribute to the advancement of nursing through our involvement and engagement. Ultimately, we continue to be the most trusted profession as we gain the trust of society through the social, civic, and professional activities, and programs and initiatives of our organization (Matthews, 2012).
Dr. Nelson Tuazon, President TNA District 8
